BACKED by a quality and deep pedigree, bred for big milk, high type, positive components and the ability to add frame to a herd – Kaarmona Jeronimo Brady ET (CSCBRADY)<\/a> is a Jersey bull set to shake-up the industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And it\u2019s no surprise – he\u2019s the descendant from a live import brought into the country in the early 1990s to expand the nation\u2019s genetic pool and improve Jersey milk flow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In other words – shake-up the industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bred by Kaarmona Jerseys and Holsteins – the Australian dairy industry\u2019s only stud with two Master Breeder awards for two breeds – CSCBRADY is progeny from the stud\u2019s prolific and best performing Babe cow family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At 445 Balanced Performance Index (BPI) and 953 on the Sustainability Index in the December Australian Breeding Value release he\u2019s ticking plenty of boxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His dam, Kaarmona Invincible Babe 323 EX-91 (max) has topped Australia\u2019s Jersey BPI genomic cow list, is a five star Jersey cow and with a recent upgrade to her classification, eight out of 10 generations of this family have been classified excellent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Breeder Rohan Sprunt from Kaarmona said CSCBRADY is bred for production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHis (CSCBRADY\u2019S) mother and grandmother are such high milk cows and have high<\/p>\n\n\n\n

components, both were over 4 per cent protein cows,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBrady\u2019s dam is running at 4.4 per cent protein year-to-date (in December 2023) on her second lactation and with a PI of 112 which puts her at the top of her age group in our<\/p>\n\n\n\n

herd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHis Grandmother has a six lactation average PI of 112, so it\u2019s easy to understand where Brady\u2019s high productive genes come from.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CSCBRADY\u2019S grandmother Kaarmona Navarian Babe 243 Ex90 re-calved this spring as a nine-year-old cow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a five year-old she produced 805 kilograms of milk solids and then backed it up with 8,689 litres and 796kg of milk solids as a six-year-old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both lactations provided her with a 116 PI during the 305-day records. But the Kaarmona Babe cows don\u2019t just pull their weight in the dairy – they also have a history turning heads in the show ring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kaarmona Parade Babe 2 EX-93<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

CSCBRADY\u2019S fifth dam Kaarmona Parade Babe EX92 STP-8 was fourth as a two-year-old at International Dairy Week in 2005, third as a three-year-old in 2006, sixth as a five-year-old in 2008 and fourth as a six-year-old in 2009.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kaarmona Parade Babe EX92 is a \u00be sister to Kaarmona Parade Babe 2 EX93.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kaarmona Parade Babe 2 EX93 was IDW intermediate champion in 2008, best udder Jersey at IDW 2010 and was also twice overall champion of the great Southern Challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Dam of Kaarmona Parade Babe EX92 is Kaarmona Lester Babe 2 EX-93.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kaarmona Lester Babe 2 EX-93 won the senior two-year-old class at IDW in 2001 and best udder in class while her ET full sister was second in the same class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She was first as a three-year-old at IDW in 2002 and best udder in-class, third as a five-year-old in 2003 with best udder in class, second in the seven-year-old and over class in 2005 and best udder again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kaarmona Lester Babe 2 EX-93 was also honorable mention IDW champion cow in 2005. Lester Babe 2\u2019s older full sister, Kaarmona Lester Babe Ex91, also produced a couple for good bulls for Central Sires Co-op back in the day, namely CSCBerlest & CSCPremier.  CSCBerlest had semen exported to the UK & he had 3 Ex full sisters with another full sister being 88@2yo for Rob & Kerrie Anderson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rohan and his brother Graeme run their family farm in partnership – an operation that milks .up to 400 at peak in autumn – at Kaarimba between Numurkah and Nathalia in Victoria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next year the Sprunt family will celebrate 150 years on their family farm, a business that began as a wheat and sheep operation and has evolved into a genetics leader in the Australian dairy industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rohan and Graeme\u2019s dad John began milking cows in 1960 and the farm first registered Jerseys in 1965.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sprunts have sold many bulls into the Australian artificial breeding industry, but cow families, breeding cows to milk and giving back – to improve the industry –  is their true passion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So it\u2019s no wonder that they purchased BIE BB Babe at IDW in 1993 for $7,200.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rohan said this cow was the foundation of the Kaarmona Babe family and her dam was a live import and brought into the country to inject new genetics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He\u2019s hoping CSCBRADY will be similar, in a way that he not only boosts production for the Australian Jersey breed, he can leave a lasting legacy when it comes to the animal\u2019s size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHis mother and grandmother are both big frame cows,\u201d Rohan said,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHopefully he can add frame to animals too because his genomic profile indicates he will transmit size, openness and front-end width into his daughters.\u201d CSCBRADY genetics is under high demand so get your orders in early as he is now producing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
